Thomas Partey misses Arsenal vs Sevilla Champions League game due to muscle injury
The Gunners recorded an important 2-1 victory on the road against the Spanish side, which catapulted them to the top of Group B.
Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus scored on either side of the half for Arsenal, with Nemanja Gudelj grabbing Sevilla’s consolation goal.
Partey did not take part in the game and did not even travel with Mikel Arteta’s side for the trip to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
The club, however, released a statement on social media platform X (Twitter) before kick-off saying the midfielder was ruled out due to a muscle injury.
“Thomas Partey misses out on tonight's game with a muscle issue,” a statement from Arsenal said.
Meanwhile, Partey and his beautiful girlfriend Janine Mackson are set to welcome a baby girl after holding a gender reveal in the presence of their friends and loved ones.
The couple had a gender reveal for their yet-to-born baby on Monday and invited some of their loved ones to witness it.
In videos that were shared on social media, Partey was seen being handed a small ball, which he kicked into the air.
When the ball burst, pink powder emerged from it, which widely signifies the female gender during such events.
Earlier in October, Janine Mackson, the girlfriend of footballer Partey, confirmed being pregnant by posting a photo of her baby bump.
The model and influencer captioned the photos “New beginnings”, with her boyfriend commenting beneath “God did.”
The couple have been dating for some time now but managed to keep their relationship private and away from the eyes of the public.
